Trip to Worcester
We are home safe and sound but quite exhausted. It was a nice week in Worcester. I forgot to take as many pictures as I wanted to take, but I thought I would share what I did remember!
On Wednesday, we went to Unkie & Susie's with Grammie for lunch. Wesley had such a great time playing with the kids. Unkie has lots more pictures from that day.
On Thursday morning we visited Grammie's house in the morning. Josiah discovered the candy dish!
We had dinner at G'ma's that evening.
Then Angela and Mia, my best friends from high school, came over for the evening. It was like no time had passed at all. Isn't that the best kind of friendship?
On Friday, we went to Friendly's for lunch with Gram. The boys really enjoyed their food, but the ice cream was certainly the best part! I had Forbidden Chocolate, of course!
I'm so glad we were able to go, but I am also glad to be home. The boys are taking their naps. So I think I'll go rest while I have the chance too!

Well, we were supposed to get a big snowstorm last night and today, but we ended up with less than an inch. Oh well!
Yesterday it rained all day. Scout was out for quite a while and got FILTHY.
By this morning there was some white stuff on the ground!
I'm hoping my tulips survive! I cut all that were open and brought them inside to enjoy before the storm came. We'll have to wait and see if the rest bloom.
Scout just loves the snow and was anxious to join me outside when I was taking pics!
Wesley did get to go out and play for a while after his nap. He came in with rosy cheeks and enjoyed a cup of hot cocoa complete with a candy cane and marshmallow. He was a happy boy! Grammie, remember this cup? Wesley uses it all the time. He loves it! I told him that you used to let me use it when I was a little girl.
That was our excitement for the weekend. Hope you all have enjoyed nicer weather than we have!

We've had lots of beautiful weather this week, and we've spent lots of time playing outside. So I thought I would share a few photos of my sweet boys playing outside.
Last Sunday poor Josiah fell in his crib and knocked one of his front teeth loose. The dentist isn't sure if it will return to its original position or not, but it looks pretty funny right now!
It's hard to believe spring is already here, but we are certainly ready for it. It's great to spend so much time outside. Hope you are all enjoying the weather as much as we are!

Edification and Beauty: The Practical Ecclesiology of the English Particular Baptists, 16751705 (Studies in Baptist History and Thought)
By James M. Renihan
see relatedI was reading a blog entry that Dad wrote a couple of years ago about his visit to Life Church here in OKC. I was struck by the relevance of his closing paragraphs to the situation at our current church. It's an important reminder of our duty to be obedient entrusting the results to God. Thanks Dad!
"But is success our goal? To be honest, I am shocked at how often outward success works its way into our minds—whether consciously or unconsciously. We evaluate ourselves and even others by criteria that belong in the board room rather than the prayer closet. While we may not seek after the kind of success evident at Lifechurch.tv, still we judge ourselves and one another similarly. I need to repent of this. I must bring to mind the reality that the Lord does not call me to anything but faithfulness. My task is to follow His Word carefully and leave the results to Him. I know that many will say that this is simply an excuse and justifies my lack of ‘success.’ But I don’t think that is the case. Sadly, I have to leave the reasons for next time. May God give us light. Amen."

Happy 1st Birthday Josiah!
It's hard to believe my little baby is a year old already!
Since Bradford was going to the Big 12 football game tonight we had a nice pancake breakfast together. Pancakes are Josiah's favorite breakfast! He sucks the syrup from each bite as he puts it in his mouth!
Then we opened presents.
A Toy Story DVD from Grandma and Grandpa. Wesley was more excited about that as you can see!
A Spiderman baseball bat from Wesley and sorting blocks from Mama and Daddy
A cute talking and singing piggy bank from Grandma and Grandpa
A very cuddly Pooh bear from Mama and Daddy that he LOVED! Pooh is the first character he's expressed any interest in and it's just been in the past week or two.
Reading his card from Grandma
Then eating it!
We will have a party next weekend for Josiah's first birthday along with Wes, Andy, and Natalie who all have birthdays in the next week and a half. So the official cake will be next weekend, but I had to have something for him today! So he had a cupcake that he ate so fast!!! He fussed for more when it was gone. What a little piggy!
